    5cats replied to ice_orange's topic in International Nursing

  9. Maryland NCLEX

  14. Michigan doesn't require VisaScreen for Canadian Nurses?

    5cats replied to RN2B123's topic in International Nursing

    Michigan will assess your transcripts so I would expect that they will find you short in those 2 areas. Canadian Nurse or not. But this is just a guess, for other States you will be short.

  19. Mercan Recruit - Canada

    5cats replied to chiLL_ouT's topic in Canada

    As stated several times in several threads before, you don't need an agency to go to Canada! It doesn't matter where you are from. Choose the province you are interested in, contact their College of...

  25. SEC assessment ? A JOKE !!

    5cats replied to dhatcher's topic in Immigration Advice

    SEC is not a joke and has nothing to do with experience but with your nursing education. Each Nurse is assesed individually according to the transcripts that are sent in. So even when you've been to...
